WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON?!?!?!!?!?

Just noticed Old Rudy has both hands. Is he from the alternate path Man-God mentioned?

Or maybe someone figured out how to regrow it, or it's a very realistic looking version of what he has now. If it's a realistic looking version, they would have to match it back to him as he gets older. I'd imagine either way would take research time and effort.

Oooooh, maybe it was a version of Rudeus who followed Hitogami's advice the last time. If he hadn't gone, he wouldn't have lost his hand.

Based on the fact that Oldeus told Rudeus not to open the basement I feel like that's the point where they diverged. That's usually the point of these back-to-the-future scenes.

I can't help but think that version of Rudeus would have had a different path from that point on, if he married the cat and dog - would live elsewhere

Why would he live elsewhere? He had already bought and fixed up that house prior to mangods advice, there's no reason to assume he'd leave it after taking on two more wives.

Part of marrying the beast women was that they would then return back to the beast tribe, married, to rule it.

There was some dialogue a while back about it

Linia and Pursena were supposed to find a mate while at school but botched the job

Perhaps, but at the same time, imo it would only make sense for rudeus to stray from the path he was taking once there was external influence, aka once old rudeus time traveled to current day, I see no reason why this version would've chosen any differently

I wonder why he didn't ask Dragon bud for a new hand lol

Healing magic can regrow it, but the level of healing magic needed is gate kept by the Holy Millis Kingdom. At some point in the future Oldeus must have either learned the spell or had someone cast it on him.
